What it means

Who it affects, what changes and what is still unconfirmed

Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.

Users and enterprise teams tracking ZKsync will notice that Prividium’s core code is now available under Apache 2.0, while the commercial enterprise tools remain in place. That means the change is in the code’s licensing, not in the availability of every enterprise feature.

In practice, the release shifts Prividium’s core code into an open license while leaving the enterprise tools commercial. What stays the same is that the enterprise layer is still not being opened in the same way as the core code. (per thedefiant.io)
